Blended learning, also known as hybrid learning, is an approach to education that combines online educational materials and opportunities for interaction online with traditional place-based classroom methods. Objectives of the study were; i. To identify the challenges faced by students during blended learning strategies on University Students’ Skill Development. ii. To Identify the Strategies to address the challenges faced by students during blended learning Strategies on University Students’ Skill Development. The following Variables was serve as the study's foundation: Demographics Variables, HoDs’ Faculty members and university students Independent Variables: Blended Learning and Dependent Variables: Skill Development. This study is survey and descriptive in nature. We were employing both qualitative and quantitative methods. The participants in the research were range in age from all the HODS, all the University Faculty members and all the University students.
